Guild Wars 2

I had the achievement colored in before I went to Kessex, however I also had 0/12 for the meta achievement. After completing the instance and getting the Euthanizer achievement I have 1/12 for the meta and did not get a pop up for the Nightmare Ender. Anyone experience something similar?

Same thing here.

I have 10/12 achievements completed but am only showing 8/12 I really hope this does not impact my ability to finish this once I get the last two done.

I ended the tower with “logic” and got no credit and no tri-key chest. I used the portal when the 30 second timer started, am I supposed to stand there instead?

I believe you have to stay, at least from personal experience. I’ve done all 3 versions for the 3 achievements (mixed combat/puzzle, just puzzle, all combat) and got all. I stayed inside, countdown shows at 30, 15 and 5s respectively then proceeds to loading Kessex Hills, where a tower destruction cutscene plays and the achievement(s) pop up + reward.

You don’t have to stay. But it seems you can’t get the all-combat or no-combat achievements on the first passthrough.

I left using the portal before countdown ended and was just fine.

For me the Nightmare Ender achievement also does not count to meta and it already was finished for me after that patch(and colored icon at achievement tab). I first thought it was some achievement you automatically got for having done the previous meta achievements where you helped fighting the nightmare a lot. But description text really makes it seem as if it was for that new story instance – then they should give it only after you complete it and not alreay before automatically.

And let it count to meta.

I got the no-combat achievement on my first try (logged out in the tower pre-patch and started in the new instance post-patch). Second try I did the combat one. So either they changed something or there’s another reason behind this not being awarded.

Edit: From what I’ve read in another thread: Did you by any chance leave the instance through the green star thingy rather than waiting or using the NPC created mesmer portal?

It has an ArenaNet reply.

Well that’s twice I sat through the boring cutscenes and boring content with no credit for achievement. I’m really sick of this unplayable garbage they keep releasing, please fix the bugs that have plagued this game since day 1 and stop releasing HORRENDOUS content. Its been an entire year since the last time they have released any new content (fractals) that wasn’t atrocious! Please restore the old fractals, please delete that JOKE of a dungeon you put into TA (you can’t find a group to do it anyway since its so boring). and bring back Forward/Up, please put Kessex hills back the way it was so I can actual level there. Bring back sensible rewards for doing dynamic events so people actually bother doing them again. The developers are slowly dismantling this game and people are playing it less and less.

I didn’t wait any of the three times I did it and was fine (couldn’t figure out a puzzle the first time – then went back twice and did them right).

I do have the bug (I’m guessing everyone does) of already having the “Nightmare Ender” achievement.

I thought this was an awesome update and I am currently levelling a Warrior in Kessex since the PS sent him there and there doesn’t seem to be any issues. I also did some levelling on my Necromancer right when the Tower first hit with all the random Toxic Alliance mobs there and it still wasn’t a big deal.

I agree that rewards need another look, however bugs are inevitable and I don’t really care as long as they get fixed. I’ve hug tested my own code before and I can’t imagine doing it on such a large scale as an MMO and NOT having something slip through.
